MEXICO.
Large Real Estate Investments
by Americans.


ST. LOUIS, No., April l7.-Advices
from Mexico state that the following
notable American investments in real
estate have been closed recently: A syn
dicate composed of Chicago capitalists
and United States army officers has pur.
chased tract of 100000 acres lying
in the States of Coahuilla, Durango and
chihuahua, in Northern Mexico. The
tract is traversed by the Mexican Cen.
trail and also by the international road,
which Huntington is building from Eagle
Pass to Laredo. OF this tract 1000, 900
acres is the finest cotton land in the
country. 1t is in the famous Lagounda
district. A purchase of 235,OOO acres
has been made in the western part OF
chihuahua by Utah men. As this tract
is adjoining the Mormon colony, the
purpose of the purchase can be readily
guessed.
THE PRESIDENCY.
ST. LOUIS, April ia telegram
from the City of Mexico dated yesterday
SAYS: The candidates for the presidency
are in the city awaiting the action OF
Congress. Nothing can be done until it
is known whether President Diaz is to
be his own successor. Congress is not
making any hasteiabout it. There was
not the slightest reference to the subject
in the Senate or House of Deputies last
evening. The sentiment in favor OF
Diaz continuing in Office is undoubtedly
growing stronger. Whether the con-
stitution shall be changed SO as to allow
him to remain in office two years longer
so as to re elect him for another term OF
four years has been question. The
committee has reported in favor OF an
amendment allowing reelection. This
committee says that in the opinion OF its
members two successive terms OF the
presidency will not endanger the repub'
lie by making it possible for the Presi-
dent to perpetuate his power.

A BAD BEGINNING.

1t is an instructive commentary
upon the cause represented by the
Ad0erfiser, and the character of the
men at its back, that it cannot issue
even the first number as Government
organ, without resorting to misrepre-
sentation, and that Of kind so glsnng
as to be apparent at glance, to any
one familiar with the importing and
jobbing trade Of Honolulu. In the
course of an article on the seizure Of
goods belonging to ]. T. Warehouse
and +. o. Hall & Son, the organ re-
marks. peaceful traders enter into a
new line OF trade and import arms Of
war in large quantities into a peaceful
community, in which the demand for
this class Of weapons has always been
met with by an ample supply through
persons specially engaged in this bust
ness"
The above is Objectionable, not only
because 1t is bad English, but also be.
cause it is untrue. II is net true that
Messrs. Waterhouse or Hall have
entered into any "new line Of trade"
by importing farms of war;" nor that
the demand for such goods has hitherto
been supplied through persons spe-
cially engaged in this business" The
houses above named, to say nothing Of
others, have been, for years past, in
the habit Of importing firearms and
selling them at wholesale and retail,
the quantity and kind Of arms import
ed depending, of course, on the wants
Of their customers If their importa-
tons of late have been larger than
usual, and confined mostly to what
are commonly known as military
weapons, it is simply because that has
been what their customers called for.
In fact la;ge portion Of their impor
tations Of this kind Of goods have been
to ill orders.
The merchants of Honolulu will
doubtless continue to import firearms
in the future as they have in the past
without reference TO the pleasure of
the Government or the misrepresenta-
tons OF its newspaper.

In Brief and to the Point.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery. Indigestion is foe to
good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is one
of the most complicated and wonderful
things in existence. 1t is easily put out
of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookery. mental worry, late hours,
irregular habits, and many other things
which ought not to be, have made the
American people nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has done a
wonderful work in reforming this sad
business and making the American peo~
pie so healthy that they can enjoy their
meals and be happy.

health. But Green's August Flower

peptic. Ask your druggist for DO tie =

THE independent republicans
held a second meeting at Cumber-
land, yesterday, and adopted reso-
lutions indorsing the democratic
candidates for county commission
ers Of Allegany county and setting
out their reasons therefor. The res
olutions state that for two years
past the republican commissioners
board has been run in the interest
of political schemers and that the
county expenses have greatly in
creased. They further state that
the names of the candidates on the
democratic ticket guarantee an hon

lieve that an honest administration

The STATE LIBRARY.-Ihe an
neg to the library is now nearing
completion, and as it approaches
this point it brings with it a work
almost as difficult as the work of
building the addition. Certainly
to an unskilled person the work OF
re-arranging and catalogueing such
a number of books as are now in
the library is task more arduous
aud confusing than one can well
conceive of. There are now in the
cellar of the State House, boxes and
boxes of books, many of which may
be useless, and in order to get rid
of all such material committee
of examination should be appoint
ed to examine and condemn such,
which should be sold for what it
would bring-as old paper, if need
be.
With the small appropriations
that have been made for library
purposes many necessary improve
ments have been delayed. To the
casual observer the office of Librar-
ian would seem to be a sine cure,
but the want of proper dispositions
and guides, gives him at certain times
an immense amount of work Doth
physical and mental. Our State
Library needs arrangements, SINH
lar to those in all circulating ll0rar-
les. The system is extremely simple
when it is once done, but is Il very
heavy work to do at first. The
manner of arranging is first to cata-
logue alphabetically under thir re-
spective heads all books of respec-
tive classes, such as Claw" ellis
tory" Fiction, etc. The different
alcoyes are then designated by let
tiers, and the shelves by numbers.
Then the books are under their re-
spective headings numbered-and
this number pasted on their backs.
After this is done Finding list is
printed so that hunting for is un-
necessary. Say for instance one
desires to find Prescott's History of
Mexico; he turns to the heading
"history" in the finding list, looks
for the letter ''P," finds the ar
rangement as follows No. 250-
Prescott's History of Mexico-B 3,
he knows then that the book is in
Above B, shelf No. 5. BY this
means everything is simplifed SO
that the work can be done by any
assistant. In the present arrange
ment of the State Library with its
number of books it is an impossi-
bility for the Librarian to remem-
Der always the exact location of
book, and with one lawyer calling
for Maryland Reports, another U.
S. Digest. and another something
else, all at one time, he has his hands
full. We say nor that the annex
has been built, that our legislature
should appropriate enough money
to simply the arrangement of our
Library to the comfort of all con-
cerned.
